Because different manufactures of fertilizer make the granules different sizes it is impossible for spreader manufactures to give guidelines for all of the different fertilizers. In addition to this walking speed and terrain, may vary, therefore settings may need to be adjusted. Because of these conditions, Precision Product Inc. makes no warranty as to the uniformity of coverage actually obtained from any of these calculations. To calculate how many pounds of material to spread per 1000 square feet of lawn. Follow these steps. 1. Read on your material bag how many square feet of area the contents of the bag will cover and how many pounds the bag weighs. Example: You have purchased a bag of fertilizer that states that it will cover 5,000 square feet, and weighs 16.0 pounds. 2. To calculate coverage divide bag weight by suggested coverage to obtain pounds per square foot that is needed to be applied. Example: 16.0 lbs. ÷ 5,000 sq. ft. = .0032 lbs./sq. ft. 3. To calculate how much you need for 1000 sq. ft. multiply the pounds per square foot obtained above by 1000. Example: .0032 lbs/sq. ft. x 1000 = 3.2 lbs./1000 sq. ft. Wing Nuts _____________________Length X_____________________Width =_____________________Total sq. ft. 4. Refer to standard settings table and locate the appropriate settings number. Example: 3.2 lbs./1000 sq. ft is closest to a 3 lbs./1000 sq. ft so the spreader setting is a 5. -______________________Non-Lawn Area House, drive etc. =_____________________Total sq. ft.

Figure 1 6 3 Using your Spreader Controller Broadcast Spreader Application Chart Storage Applying Product 1. Rinse inside of hopper and exterior of spreader. 2. Store in a clean, dry area. See Application Chart for Setting Information. DO NOT allow spreader to sit stationary with material in the hopper and control lever in the ON position. Broadcast Spreader Operation Control Lever 1.

With control lever in the off position, press down on the calibration indicator button and slide it to desired setting number. 2. Fill the Hopper With the spreader control lever in the off position, fill the spreader over a patch of bare ground or sidewalk/driveway. DO NOT fill the spreader on the lawn. Sweep up any spilled product. Calibration Indicator Button OF F Settings are made by loosening the Wing Nut and sliding the Calibration Indicator to the desired setting, tighten the Wing Nut. Pull the Control Lever to the desired setting and begin spreading. To stop fertilizer distribution, push the Control Lever forward, to the closed position. Settings Numbers 3. Apply 1. Always have the control lever in the OFF position before filling the hopper. 2. Always push the spreader forward to operate; do not operate in reverse. 3. Start moving forward before pushing the control lever to the ON position. Pull the control lever to the OFF position before stopping or turning. 4. Push the spreader at a steady speed. 5. To avoid misses or striping, space each pass across the lawn so approximately 20% of the spread width overlaps the previous pass. This provides a feathered overlap to even out distribution over the with of the spread. CAUTION: Care must be taken with any weed killer, pesticide, or combination product. They can be harmful to other plant life in the yard. While unit is in motion at approximately 3 miles per hour, push spreader control lever up to calibration indicator button to release product.

Precision Products Inc. 316 Limit St. Lincoln IL 62656 4 For rectangular lawns, apply two header strips at each end of the lawn and then go back and forth between the header strips. Close spreader at the end of each pass and reopen at the start of next pass. For irregular-shaped lawns, apply one header strip around the entire lawn, and then go back and forth. To avoid streaks or misses, slightly overlap each strip over the edge of the previous strip. Use the settings under “Standard Settings” Section for most applications by figuring lbs. per 1000 square feet. These numbers are for a one pass application. A two pass application is recommended, using a crisscross pattern. If using this method, us half the setting number given. If you think too much is being applied, cut down your setting. The solution for too much fertilizer is water. Close Spreader at the end of each pass. Open again at the start of your next pass. Over Lap 5
